Zipper Sewing Easy When Using Cellophane Tape
W ATER SPOTS on furniture are
those which are white or
gray. They may be removed by
rubbing with a cloth dipped in
water to which a few drops of
ammonia have been added. Rub
dry with a clean cloth, then polish
Oil of camphor or oil of pepper
mint are sometimes used for re
moving water spots on furniture
Rub the spot lightly with this, then
dry and apply furniture polish.
Finger-marked or sticky furni
ture will need to be cleaned, a
small spot at a time, with a soft
cloth dipped in a lather made oi
mild soapsuds and lukewarm
water. Rinse with cloth dipped in
clear water, dry and polish.
RECIPE OF THE WEEK
Fruit Candy Bars
(Makes 12)
~ % cup pitted dates, prunes
or figs
Vt cup raisins
% cup nuts
% cup drained, crushed
pineapple
1 cup shredded coconut
Put dates, raisins and nuts
through the food grinder. Com
bine this fruit mixture with pine
apple and % cup of the coco
nut. Mix well and mold into a
rectangular bar, S by 6 inches.
Dip a knife in cold water and
slice into 12 bars, %-inch thick
and 2 inches long. Roll in re
maining coconut, then chill and
store in refrigerator.
Spilled perfumes or medicines
cause stains because they remove
the varnish or sheUac from the
furniture, since they contain al
cohol. Wipe off spilled alcohol im
mediately, and rub spot quickly
with fingers or an oiled cloth.
Neglected alcohol stains should
be treated as follows: mix lemon
oil and rottenstone to a creamy
paste. Apply mixture to the stain
rubbing in small circles. Wipe im
mediately wit$i cloth moistened
with lemon oil. Place a new coat
of varnish over the entire surface.
When hot dlslies have been set
down on unprotected surfaces of
wood they leave a white stain.
Dampen a cloth with oil of cam
phor or peppermint. Rub spot well
and let dry, then use furniture
polish.

jTNSERTING a zipper in a
■L dress or skirt often can be
a bugaboo even for women
experienced at home sewing.
It takes time, doesn’t always
come out smooth, sometimes
means a stretched seam.
That’s why a new and sure
method of putting in a zipper
is such welcome news. It re
quires only the use of cello
phane* tape and it’s this use
that eliminates pinning, bast
ing, ripping—and all the ac
companying guesswork.
There’s little or no han
dling of the fabric. This
means that seams won’t
^stretch and that you won’t
pull the zipper tape out of
shape. Nor is there a need
for pins. When the zipper
ia in, it’s there to stay. It
won’t buckle, pucker or pull
the seam.
We’ve chosen to show a
slot seam, which is right for
sleeves or the back opening
of a dress. But exactly the
same principle applies to the
lapped seam type of placket
used in either dress or skirt.
Sew the seam up to the point
where the zipper opens. Then
press entire seam into place.
Now run strip of cellophane
tape along entire outside length
of opening so that fabric 'edges
will be just touching.
Turn the material and place
zipper along the seam on the
wrong side of the garment. Use
strips of tape crosswise to hold
zipper next to the seam. This
holds the zipper firmly in place
while you sew on the machine.
Now for the actual sewing.
Stitch It on either side of the
garment except if you have a
chain-stitch machine. Run the
stitching down one side, across
and up the other side. Finally,
remove tape and press garment.

Eleazer Book
Is Popular
J. W. Eleazer’s “A Dutch Fork
Fhrm Boy” has been drawing
comments from people far beyond
South Carolina since its publica
tion early in March.
“A chuckle on every page”
has been one observation.
Aside from its entertainment
value, however, the book will add
a great deal to the knowledge
of life in the Dutch Fork a gen
eration ago. Also, several new
words should be added to the
dictionary.
“Dominecker,” for instance, ap
plies to chickens with checked
feathers—or, almost checked. But
the dictionary comes up with the
dignified "dominique.” It might
prove where the chickens come
from, but any South Carolina
rooster called “dominique” would
feel like an alien in his own
barnyard.

I REMEMBER
BY THS OX.& TIMERS
From Mrs. Olga Severs, Broad

in the backyard with Mom ever}
night while she fattened up the
ducks by stuffing whole corn ker
nels mixed with water and stale
bread down their throats with her
forefinger and thumb. I remembei
how Mom taught me to polish her
best silverware with ashes and we*
newspapers.
From Mrs. Ervin Le Van, Wes
Mansfield, Ohio: £ remembei
when in the summer after, we had
picked a bushel of green beans, wc
children would sit around th(
basket with needles and string anc
string the beans to be hung behint
the kitchen cook stove to dry foi
winter’s use.
From Mrs. Adam Hengel, Flnlaj
son, Minn.: I remember when wc
came from Switzerland to America
and moved to a farm in Minnesota
Fatheif made wooden shoes for u
children. He used basswood for th(
soles and odds and ends of leathe
for the tops. The leather tops wouh
wear out three or four woodei
soles. He cut the leather from ole
horse collars. As a little girl I hac
to herd cattle, as there were nc*

farm work such as pulling stumps
From iflTrs, C. J. Hartell, Stevem

don’t like about women:
FALSE COLORS — Don’t apply
lipstick to fernp. exaggerated lip
lines. When he kisses you, the false
lines will fade, and he will be
chagrined to find he wasn’t kissing
your lips after all. A man whose
girl camouflages her mouth too de
ceptively is always afraid it will
pop up where he least expects it
and bite him-
HIGHBROW EYEBROWS — Too
many women look at men with
eyebrows lifted too haughtily by
the eyebrow pencil. This makes a
man feel like a slightly tainted
fish. Other women attain too bi
zarre effects with the pentil. Don’t
pluck all your eyebrows and pen
cil in their place, “I Like Ike.”
Men are frightened of women who
show too much interest in politics.
BAD MANNERS—Men don’t like
for women to comb their hair over
a restaurant table. If you can’t go
to the powder room, stick your
head under the table. But act
poised in this. Don’t lose your
head. You don’t want your escort
and the head waiter groping under
the table for it.
SCENTIMENT—Perfume should
be no stronger than a whiff. If you
give a man a steady, strong ema
nation that assaults his nostrils
and threatens to drag him into ro
mance by the nose, he’s likely to
.••un out for air and not return. But
give-him just a smidgin of “Seduc
tion” or “Forbidderf Fruit” and he
will keep sniffing for more.
SLACKS—Women in slacks offe-
men no fond illusion—all looks lik'-
confusion and intrusion. Your fig
ure may be on trial, but it doesn'
have to tell the truth, the whol
Vruth and nothing but the truh.
Yet fool’d with hope, men favor

jomfortably in the capable and

Davis it is just as simple as tha

of the microphone you’ll f i n <
George Brent, as co-star, -who play
the role of Sam Craig, sports col
umnist for the same paper an-
equally as competent in his ow
field.

than facts in history texts an

no time or thought to romance . .
Sam Craig, on the other hand
